This function queries the name of a remote Bluetooth device.

Note

To preserve Win32 compatibility, consider using the Winsock equivalent of this function. To do so, pass SO_BTH_SET_READ_REMOTE_NAME as the optname value in setsockopt.

Syntax

int BthRemoteNameQuery(
  BT_ADDR* pba,
  unsigned int cBuffer,
  unsigned int* pcRequired,
  WCHAR* szString
);

Parameters

  • pba
    [in] Pointer to the Bluetooth address of a device whose name is to be queried.
  • cBuffer

    [out] Pointer to the number of wchars required.
  • szString
    [in, out] On input, the buffer in which to store the device name. On output, the resulting string.

Return Value

This function returns ERROR_SUCCESS when it completes successfully.

A return value of ERROR_SERVICE_NOT_ACTIVE indicates that the hardware is not inserted or that the Bluetooth stack is not present.

A return value of ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER indicates that the buffer is too small.

Other standard error codes may be returned as appropriate.
